There has to be a way to solo, or duo, all of these guys that spawn. Trapping is one, but it was nerfed. 600'ing....well....im not sure if that would work, 55 would definitely not work. So, what? Help me think....

i invented a way to do this duo its very simple but takes forever so i stopped doing it

necro:
Blood ritual
Masochism
splinter weapon

ranger:
barrage
dash
return/ recall (the maintined 1 not sure which is witch)

it works but its very slow due mainle to splinter weapon's nerf but if u need to farm it, you need to farm it

You mentioned 600'ing so I will assume that you have a monk out to the Gate of Anguish.

Otherwise there is really no way to farm them.

Trapping should still work. Just drag 2 trapping heroes with a shadowstep anchored on a third hero. Micro all the traps, flag the anchor hero away, pull, and presto! All dead.

Note: This is theory, really. I've not done it. Too much micro-managing for me, but I can't think why it would not work. If you can, please do.

This is just theory but it could work.

Mo/Me
[skill]Sympathetic Visage[/skill][skill]Ancestor's Visage[/skill][skill]Spirit Bond[/skill][skill]Protective Spirit[/skill][skill]Shield of Absorption[/skill][skill]Aura of Faith[/skill][skill]Blessed Aura[/skill][skill]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill]

R/Rt
[skill]Famine[/skill][skill]Symbiosis[/skill][skill]Quickening Zephyr[/skill][skill]Serpent's Quickness[/skill][skill]Feast of Souls[/skill]

Mo/x
[skill]Holy Wrath[/skill][skill]Retribution[/skill][skill]Sympathetic Visage[/skill][skill]Ancestor's Visage[/skill][skill]Succor[/skill][skill]Life Attunement[/skill][skill]Blessed Signet[/skill]

Basically get as much health as possible to survive the initial onslaught of touches. The Mo/x puts both visages on the tank to drain the Stygian Hungers out of energy as quickly as possible before their life steal overwhelms the tank. Then, kill the Symbiosis spirit and it's just 600 tanking.

Killing the shadow army for Stygian Gemstones as in the other thread is probably easier, though.

Its pretty easy to farm them trio.
I use this:
E/Me - 16 earth 12 Illusion. (I play this part)
[skill]Ancestor's Visage[/skill][skill]Sympathetic Visage[/skill][skill]Armor of Earth[/skill][skill]Aura of Restoration[/skill][skill]Stoneflesh Aura[/skill] + More enchantments.
A Mo/X Bonder (hero) with
[skill]Life Barrier[/skill][skill]Life Bond[/skill][skill]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill][skill]Vital Blessing[/skill]
And last, a R/Mo (hero) with 3 Maintained Enchantments (one must be essence bond) and
[skill]Symbiosis[/skill][skill]Famine[/skill][skill]Edge of Extinction[/skill]

Easy Peasy.
You need atleast 2.3k health when farming them as an Ele (NOTE: A Mesmer with Mantra of Recovery can farm this just as well! [NOT TESTED, SHOULD WORK IN THEORY])
